关于

快速信息: 这座大教堂68米高的尖顶使其成为英国第二高的教堂尖顶。其建设从1072年开始历时122年,建筑取代了原址上的一座早期诺曼教堂。

亮点: 游客可以爬上270级狭窄的螺旋楼梯到达钟楼顶部,从52米的高处俯瞰伦敦全景。钟楼内还装有一套12口钟,最大的一口重达1.5吨以上,在周日礼拜开始时敲响。

内部小贴士

  • Arrive for Choral Evensong (typically 5pm weekdays) to hear the choir for free in the full acoustic glory of the nave.
  • Look for the small medieval wall painting of the Virgin and Child tucked in the south transept, easily missed but over 700 years old.
  • Photography is allowed without flash, but avoid the midday glare by visiting when light streams through the east window.
  • Skip the gift shop queue and instead pick up a guide booklet from the volunteer desk for a self-guided tour.
